Buteyko method

The Buteyko Method is a breathing technique designed to improve health by encouraging slower, more controlled breathing. It focuses on reducing over-breathing or hyperventilation, which can disturb the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body. By learning to breathe softly and calmly through the nose, practitioners aim to increase carbon dioxide levels, promoting better oxygen delivery to tissues, reducing asthma symptoms, anxiety, and improving overall well-being. The method emphasizes awareness of breathing patterns and gentle pause techniques to restore normal respiratory function and support health.
